1 Cor. 12:12,14‑20• 12For even as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ.
14For also the body is not one member but many.
15If the foot say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?
16And if the ear say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?
17If the whole body were an eye, where the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling?
18But now God has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased him.
19But if all were one member, where the body?
20But now the members are many, and the body one.
